BACKGROUND OF INVENTION 1. Field of Invention

The present application relates to a technical field of displays, and particularly, to a pixel structure and a display panel.

2. Related Art

With development of panel products towards narrow borders and high resolution, current ultra-high-definition liquid crystal displays are designed with chip-on-film package methods for gate drivers in such a way that driving signals on scan lines and data lines are configured on a same side, reducing width of left and right sides of liquid crystal displays to achieve effects of ultra-narrow bezels.

Due to parasitic capacitance between data lines and pixel units, changes of data line signals will interfere with stability of pixel unit signals. With ultra-narrow bezel design, pixel units increase in resolution and decrease in size, and coupling of parasitic capacitance between the data lines and the pixel units is more significant to the pixel units, causing vertical crosstalk in panels, thus adversely affecting product quality of the panels. In addition, in the design that gate drivers are packaged with the chip-on-film package methods, since traces of scan lines configured in vertical directions exist in the pixel units, distances between data lines on left and right sides of the pixel units and pixel unit electrodes are different, resulting in differences in parasitic capacitance between the data lines and the pixel unit electrodes. Interference to the pixel units cannot be completely eliminated through general methods by setting signals on the data lines on the left and right sides to be opposite.

Therefore, it is imperative in the art to provide a pixel structure and a display panel to solve a problem of abnormal display caused by vertical crosstalk due to parasitic capacitance to pixel units.

As shown in FIG. 1 , an embodiment of the present application provides a pixel structure 100, including a first pixel electrode 10, a second pixel electrode 20, a transverse signal line 30, a first longitudinal signal line 40, and a second longitudinal signal line 50. The first pixel electrode 10 includes a first main pixel area 11 and a first sub-pixel area 12. The second pixel electrode 20 is arranged in alternation with the first pixel electrode 10 in a first direction X and includes a second main pixel area 21 and a second sub-pixel area 22. The transverse signal line 30 is located between the first main pixel area 11 and the first sub-pixel area 12 and extends in the first direction X. The first longitudinal signal line 40 includes a first main line 41 and a first secondary-line 42. The second longitudinal signal line 50 includes a second main line 51 and a second secondary-line 52. Specifically, each of the first main line 41 and the second main line 51 is arranged in the first main pixel area 11, each of the first secondary-line 42 and the second secondary-line 52 is arranged in the first sub-pixel area 12, and electrical signals on the first longitudinal signal line 40, and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are opposite.

In the pixel structure provided by the present application, the first main line 41 and the second main line 51 are both disposed in the first main pixel area 11, both the first secondary-line 42 and the second secondary-line 52 are disposed in the first sub-pixel area 12, and the electrical signals on the first vertical signal line 40 and the second vertical signal line 50 are opposite to each other. Such a structure can cancel effects of capacitive coupling between the first longitudinal signal line 40, and the second longitudinal signal line 50 and the first pixel electrode 10, which is beneficial to eliminate vertical crosstalk and improve display performance. Compared with adjacent ones of conventional data lines located in corresponding pixel areas, a distance between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the adjacent second longitudinal signal line 50 in the present application is relative closer, and an effect of canceling the coupling is more significant.

In the embodiment of the present application, the transverse signal line 30 is a scanning signal line, and the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are both data signal lines.

In the embodiment of the present application, the transverse signal line 30 is located in a transistor circuit area TA, that is, the transistor circuit area TA is located between the first main pixel area 11 and the first sub-pixel area 12, and is also located between the second main pixel area 21 and the second sub-pixel area 22. As shown in FIG. 2 , each transistor circuit area TA corresponding to the first pixel electrode 10 or the second pixel electrode 20 is provided with a first transistor T1, a second transistor T2, and a third transistor T3. FIG. 2 is a pixel structure based on a transverse signal line 30, a data line and three thin-film transistors in an embodiment of the present application. Taking the first pixel electrode 10 as an example: the first main pixel area 11 includes a first transistor T1, a first liquid crystal capacitor Clca, and a first storage capacitor Csta. A gate of the first transistor T1 is electrically connected to the transverse signal line 30, and a source and a drain of the first transistor T1 are electrically connected to the first main line 41 of the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the first liquid crystal capacitor Clca, respectively. The first liquid crystal capacitor Clca and the first storage capacitor Csta are connected in parallel between the drain/source of the first transistor T1 and a common electrode A_com.

Specifically, the first sub-pixel area 12 includes a second transistor T2, a third transistor T3, a second liquid crystal capacitor Clcb, and a second storage capacitor Cstb. A gate of the second transistor T2 is electrically connected to the transverse signal line 30, and a source and a drain of the second transistor T2 are electrically connected to the first secondary-line 42 of the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second liquid crystal capacitor Clcb, respectively. A gate of the third transistor T3 is electrically connected to the transverse signal line 30, and a source and a drain of the third transistor T3 are electrically connected to the drain/source and a common electrode A_com of the second transistor T2, respectively. Correspondingly, the thin-film transistor in the second pixel electrode 20 is electrically connected to the second longitudinal signal line 50.

In the embodiment of the present application, the transverse signal line 30 is a scan line for providing scan signals; the first longitudinal signal line 40 is a first data line for providing data signals; the second longitudinal signal line 50 is a second data line for providing data signals.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are parallel to each other, and the transverse signal line 30 is perpendicular to the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50. Such a structure is beneficial to wiring layouts in the pixel structure.

In an embodiment of the present application, further, the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are symmetrical with respect to a center line of the first pixel electrode 10. That is, a distance between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the center line of the first pixel electrode 10 is equal to a distance between the second longitudinal signal line 50 and the center line of the first pixel electrode 10. In this manner, it is beneficial to cancel the coupling of signal inversion between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 on the first pixel electrode 10, and both the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are located in the main pixel area or the sub-pixel area of the first pixel electrode 10. Therefore, a distance between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 is shorter, which is beneficial to minimize the crosstalk of an image. In addition, it is beneficial to increase an area of an opening area AA of the first pixel electrode 10 or the second pixel electrode 20 by using space between the first pixel electrode 10 and the second pixel electrode 20 originally configured for placing data lines, thus improving an aperture ratio and increasing transmittance.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first longitudinal signal line 40 is electrically connected to one of the first pixel electrode 10 or the second pixel electrode 20. The second longitudinal signal line 50 is electrically connected to the other of the first pixel electrode 10 or the second pixel electrode 20. As shown in FIG. 3 , the first longitudinal signal line 40 is electrically connected to the first pixel electrode 10; the second longitudinal signal line 50 is electrically connected to the second pixel electrode 20. Specifically, the first main line 41 is electrically connected to the first transistor T1; the first secondary-line 42 is electrically connected to the second transistor T2. The first pixel electrodes 10 and the second pixel electrodes 20 are alternately arranged in the first direction X. Specifically, the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 may also be located in the second pixel electrode 20 (not shown). Those skilled in the art can modify the arrangement as needed, which is not limited in this application.

In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in FIG. 4 , the pixel structure further includes a first shared electrode 60 arranged along and overlapping the center line of the first pixel electrode 10. The first shared electrode 60 is configured to adjust a voltage difference between the first main pixel area 11 and the first sub-pixel area 12 to adjust overall brightness of the first pixel electrode 10. Specifically, the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are symmetrical with respect to the first shared electrode 60. In this fashion, a distance between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the first shared electrode 60 is equal to a distance between the second longitudinal signal line 50 and the first shared electrode 60, which is beneficial to the wiring layout and can further enhance the effect of canceling the coupling. Specifically, a material of the first shared electrode 60 includes a metal oxide, such as at least one of indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, aluminum tin oxide, aluminum zinc oxide, indium germanium zinc oxide, etc., or a metal combination thereof.

In one embodiment of the present application, the pixel structure further includes a second shared electrode 70 arranged along and overlapping a center line of the second pixel electrode 20. The second shared electrode 70 is configured to adjust a voltage difference between the second main pixel area 21 and the second sub-pixel area 22 to adjust overall brightness of the second pixel electrode 20. In this fashion, the distance between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the first shared electrode 60 is equal to the distance between the second longitudinal signal line 50 and the first shared electrode 60, which is beneficial to the wiring layout and can further enhance the effect of canceling the coupling. Specifically, a material of the second shared electrode 70 includes a metal oxide, such as at least one of indium tin oxide, indium zinc oxide, aluminum tin oxide, aluminum zinc oxide, indium germanium zinc oxide, etc., or a metal combination thereof.

In one embodiment of this application, the first shared electrode 60 and the second shared electrode 70 receive different voltage signals, respectively. Specifically, the first pixel electrode 10 and the second pixel electrode 20 can be regarded as a cycle pixel unit, and are arranged in an array on the display panel 300, but may bring about a defect that resolution of the display panel 300 is reduced. Therefore, in this embodiment, the first shared electrode 60 and the second shared electrode 70 are disposed, respectively, and voltage signals of the first shared electrode 60 and the second shared electrode 70 can be adjusted independently in order to enable individual adjustment of display brightness of the first pixel electrode 10 and the second pixel electrode 20, so that the above-mentioned defect is overcome. Furthermore, since the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are disposed in the opening area AA of the first pixel electrode 10 or the second pixel electrode 20, a problem of shading is prone to occur, causing the brightness of the first pixel electrode 10 and the second pixel electrode 20 to be inconsistent. By connecting the first shared electrode 60 and the second shared electrode 70 with different voltage signals, respectively, the display brightness of the first pixel electrode 10 and the second pixel electrode 20 is adjusted, which is beneficial to prevent color shift and achieve brightness uniformity.

In one embodiment of the present application, each of the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 is located within an area between an edge region and a center region of the first pixel electrode 10, that is, in the opening area AA. Specifically, the first pixel electrode 10 includes a first common electrode 80, and a square area surrounded by the first common electrode 80 is the opening area AA of the first pixel electrode 10; correspondingly, the second pixel electrode 20 includes a second common electrode 90, and a square area surrounded by the second common electrode 90 is the opening area AA of the second pixel electrode 20. That is, the first common electrode 80 and the second common electrode 90 are disposed in a non-display area of each of the first pixel electrode 10 and the second pixel electrode 20. Further, the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are parallel in a width direction of the opening area AA of the first pixel electrode 10. A distance between the first common electrode 80 located in a length direction of one side of the first pixel electrode 10 and the first longitudinal signal line 40, and a distance between the first common electrode 80 located in the length direction of an opposite side of the first pixel electrode 10 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are both greater than a predetermined distance. Specifically, the predetermined distance needs to satisfy: an electric field formed by a voltage difference between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 and the first common electrode 80 located in the length direction of the opposite two sides of the first pixel electrode 10 cannot make liquid crystal molecules deflect significantly.

The pixel structure provided by this application includes: the first pixel electrode 10, the second pixel electrode 20, the transverse signal line 30, the first longitudinal signal line 40, and the second longitudinal signal line 50. The first pixel electrode 10 includes the first main pixel area 11 and the first sub-pixel area 12. The second pixel electrode 20 is arranged in alternation with the first pixel electrode 10 in the first direction X and includes the second main pixel area 21 and the second sub-pixel area 22. The transverse signal line 30 is located between the first main pixel area 11 and the first sub-pixel area 12 and between the second main pixel area 21 and the second sub-pixel area 22. The first longitudinal signal line 40 includes the first main line 41 and the first secondary-line 42. The second longitudinal signal line 50 includes the second main line 51 and the second secondary-line 52. Specifically, electrical signals on the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 are opposite. The first main line 41 and the second main line 51 are both disposed in the first main pixel area 11, and the first secondary-line 42 and the second secondary-line 52 are both disposed in the first sub-pixel area 12. In the pixel structure of the present application, the two data lines connected to the adjacent first pixel electrode 10 and the second pixel electrode 20, respectively, are arranged in the pixel area of the first pixel electrode 10 in order to cancel the capacitive coupling between the first longitudinal signal line 40 and the second longitudinal signal line 50 and the first pixel electrode 10, which is beneficial to eliminate vertical crosstalk and improve display performance.
